Attempted robbery involving a pocketknife in Dortmund-Wambel
Two unknown men approached a 32-year-old man on the pavement of Am Haselhof in Dortmund-Wambel.

The 32-year-old sustained a minor injury while knocking the knife away and continued to defend himself with his fists. The suspects fled south without taking anything. A police search was unsuccessful; officers are investigating attempted aggravated robbery and seeking witnesses. The incident occurred at about 00:45.
